0:06
honey is to be what tech news is to TechLinked
0:10
now i finally know what she meant she meant make sure you tell your wife that
0:13
you're filming before you start filming or she might just march on right on
0:17
through the frame there like like like that that just happened that's marriage
0:20
you know samsung like you and me has had enough of these dang notches taking over
0:25
our phones and they've actually avoided the trend so far in their devices and it
0:30
looks like they might skip it all together and head straight for an
0:34
all-screen phone that is if a recent leak is to be believed historically
0:38
accurate leaker ice universe posted a
0:42
photo from a samsung presentation that shows the company is working on
0:46
integrating smartphone features under the display including speakers
0:50
fingerprint readers and sensors numerous other leaks have pointed to the galaxy
0:55
s10 having an in-display fingerprint reader but also having front-facing
0:59
speakers and sensors under the screen now that would be something new it would
1:04
still probably be super difficult if not impossible to put a camera under display
1:09
but ice universe also posted a smartphone concept of open hole camera
1:14
tech which could look cool especially if the camera is in like the top corner but
1:19
we really need it we really need like a
1:22
non-goatsy image inducing like name for this yuck
1:28
in other samsung news the company actually released a real product today
1:32
as well the galaxy book 2. like the original galaxy book it's a Windows
1:37
tablet using a microsoft surface style design with a kickstand and detachable
1:41
keyboard but this one is running a qualcomm snapdragon 850 instead of last
1:48
year's Intel core m it also has two usb
1:51
3.1 type c ports which microsoft has inexplicably
1:55
not added to the new surface pro 6 and surface laptop 2 even though there's usb
2:00
type-c on the surface go and the surface headphones
2:04
and anyways the galaxy book 2 also has 4 gigs of RAM 128 gigs of storage 20 hours
2:10
of battery life and it's a thousand bucks us
2:13
a thousand dollars u.s all for the privilege of not being able to run many
2:16
many Windows apps because you're running on ARM
2:20
fan fan fantastic speaking of overpriced
2:23
devices after announcing their new phones apple is going to have another
2:27
event on october 30th i heard it's going to be a spooky one they're going to have
2:31
the the i go lantern eye lantern yeah
2:36
the company is expected to announce a new version of the ipad pro which has
2:41
been heavily rumored to either include usbc and a lightning port or replace the
2:47
lightning port with usb type-c it's all it's all very exciting you know you know
2:51
what else would be exciting uh if microsoft did the same thing
2:55
oh oh right no sorry more mac rumors uh a mac pro what about a mac mini pro
3:01
according to bloomberg apple will reveal a mac mini targeted at professionals and
3:06
a lower priced macbook but bloomberg
3:09
says a lot of things these days like about the chinese spy chips implanted in
3:14
the motherboards so apple could reveal anything
3:17
but what is certain because they announced the event for october 30th is
3:21
that uh oneplus had to move their october 30th event that that we know for
3:25
sure don't sweat it oneplus you're gonna get on apple's level eventually probably
3:30
probably not but that's okay because even being second place to apple you can
3:35
still be doing like pretty well you know if you're just like at the
3:38
900 billion dollar company instead of trillion anyway it's time for tiny
3:42
treats brought to you by massdrop and their custom sennheiser hd58x jubilee
3:47
headphones they were tuned by axel grell of sennheiser yes that is the axle
3:51
grille by the way and the audiophile community at massdrop

4:09
got one of those and then it's got another one on the other side you know what just just when i give up on this
4:14
just check out the link to massdrop and go buy yours at the link below so the
4:18
embargo has lifted for Intel's 9th gen processors including the core i9 9900k
4:23
and the consensus so far seems to be that it is 50 faster than AMD's ryzen 27
4:28
ah no that was no that was that was the
4:32
fake benchmarks sorry sorry it's not 50 it is fast though and it's expensive now
4:37
the Linus tech tips review isn't out quite yet but i promise you Linus tech
4:42
tips will return soon in the night to bring you a core i9 9900k review like
4:48
tomorrow or something so check out the link in the video description for
4:52
later maybe we'll add it later micron announced its plans to buy Intel's share
4:56
in im flash technologies that's Intel micron in case you're wondering which
5:00
owns the only chip fabrication facility that Intel uses to produce the 3d cross
5:05
point memory used in its optane modules so well that was fun i guess obtain had
5:10
a pretty good run back to regular ssds then i mean Intel
5:16
hasn't agreed to this yet so we'll see what happens discord launched their new
5:19
store this week but they also released new terms of service that apparently
5:24
have users waiving their right to participate in a class-action lawsuit
5:29
against the company so if one of those good old-fashioned facebook style hacks
5:34
happens to discord you'll have to settle things with them on their own i
5:37
challenge you two fisty cuffs sir and uh you can only opt out of the terms
5:42
by sending an email to discord so
5:46
maybe we'll go back to skype or what numerous rumors have pointed towards AMD
5:51
releasing a Radeon rx 590 soon using
5:54
refreshed polaris chips um
5:58
i i guess they have a reason for doing this nevertheless NVIDIA is preparing
6:04
their answer an updated gtx 1060 with gddr5x memory
6:09
and we saved the best for last china has
6:12
announced plans to launch an artificial moon into if they sound like a super
6:16
villain the moon would be a fully armed and operational
6:22
battlestation would be a low orbit satellite that
6:26
would reflect sunlight providing nighttime illumination to the city of
6:31
chengdu this would apparently save the
6:34
government 173 million dollars in electricity costs annually as they
6:39
wouldn't need as many street lights
6:42
i think can you imagine the city planning meeting
6:46
oh we're using too much electricity ah i know we'll just create it i mean this is
6:51
like it's like an episode of the simpsons
6:54
is dismissed is there a chinese mr burns
